Uh oh 👀

" #Venezuela’s acting leader, in an address to the nation on Sunday, said there were “ #Zionist undertones” to the #US military’s capture of President #NicolásMaduro.

#DelcyRodriguez, a vice president under #Maduro who is now the interim leader, has demanded the “immediate release” of Maduro and his wife, #CiliaFlores, since they were captured by U.S. forces on Saturday. Maduro and #Flores were flown to #NewYorkCity, where they are expected to appear in federal court on drug-trafficking and other charges on Monday.

“Governments around the world are simply shocked that the #Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is the victim and target of an attack of this nature, which undoubtedly has Zionist undertones,” #Rodriguez said in the televised address. “It is truly shameful.”

I’m glad to see Reuters reporting on the loss of life in #venezuela as a result of the kidnapping of Nicolás #Maduro and Cilia #Flores finally. It felt like the legacy news media was portraying this as a bloodless dash-and-grab when the reality is that the military the US sent in just murdered most of Maduro’s security forces.
